After a two-year hiatus, Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival is officially returning in 2026. Set to take place from March 19th - 22nd at its beloved home, Sunshine Grove in Florida, the four-day camping festival will mark the event’s ten-year anniversary since its debut in 2016.

Originally founded by Soundslinger, OMF has become known for its immersive blend of music, art, and community — a spirit the festival’s team is promising to revive in full force. “OMF has always been about more than just music — it’s a celebration of creative expression in all its forms,” said Rechulski, founder and chairman of Soundslinger.

The 2026 edition will bring back the festival’s signature multigenre programming, with a lineup expected to feature artists from across electronic, rock, hip-hop, and indie. Longtime bookers Ben Baruch and Dave Niedbalski are back on board to curate the bill.

Presale kicks off April 16 with a loyalty window for returning attendees, followed by wider access on April 17. For the first time, the event will offer an “Okee OG” campground for returning festivalgoers.

With its return to independent roots and a renewed focus on community, Okeechobee 2026 is shaping up to be a true celebration of the festival’s legacy.
